Why do you run into a Pokemon while you're using the Poke Radar?

Question

Don't get the wrong idea when you read the question. Sometimes, when I'm using the chain Poke Radar thingy, I take a step from where I was and run into a Pokémon where the grass wasn't rustling. This may seem normal, but the problem is, I have a Max Repel up and the first Pokémon in my party is 10 levels higher than the wild Pokémon found in the area! Is this something that's supposed to happen?

I think you guys are getting the wrong idea.  I HAVE A MAX REPEL IN EFFECT ALREADY!!!!!  I know this because a mere 20-30 steps after this occurs, the game says "Repel's effect wore off..."

The same has happened to me. I was a max repel and I walk in the grass waiting for the rustling grass to appear and I end up battling a Pokemon without the rustling grass. This is pretty normal. It depends on the first Pokemon you have in your party.
Also some repels don't really work the way you want it to. After a while, the repels will work again.

Hope this helps.
